Scholarship in the Realms of Faculty Responsibility

Publications

Acceptance rates are reported for venues when available. Citations
represent the non-self citations determined by the web service Google
Scholar (based on an incomplete online search) and are reported for
ten or more citations. The true number of citations may be higher
since Google Scholar appears to not have access to the ACM and IEEE
publication databases and since Google Scholar removes references that
cannot be found online anymore after some time (implying that citation
counts can not only go up but also down over time).

``Realistic Timing Analysis of Real-Time Systems -
A Formal Framework, Supporting Protocols, and an Implementation'',
University of California at Davis, March 24, 2000, repeated at
Computer Science Colloquium, Humboldt University Berlin, May 18, 2000.

``On the Design and Implementation of DSM-Threads'', Keynote in Workshop
on Parallel Computing for Irregular Applications (WPCIA'00) in
conjunction with High-Performance Computer Architecture (HPCA-6),
Toulouse, France, January 8, 2000.

``Timing Analysis for Set-Associative Instruction Caches'',
University of the Saarland, Saarbruecken, Germany, Department of
Computer Science, invited by Prof. Wilhelm under DFG-SFB 124
``Special Research Project for VLSI and Parallelism'', December 12, 1996.

This work creates a framework that allows application developers to
focus on data analysis that drives customized data extraction combined
with on-the-fly analysis specifically geared to their individual
problems.

CPS: Breakthrough: Collaborative Research: Bringing the Multicore Revolution to Safety-Critical Cyber-Physical Systems.
co-PI, funded by NSF at
$225,000 from 2/13 to 1/16 (full funding at a total of $675,000
with James Anderson, UNC Chapel Hill), no-cost extensions to 1/17.

This research aims at resolving this multicore ``predictability
problem.'' It will develop methods that enable to share hardware
resources to be allocated and provide predictability, including
support for real-time operating systems, middleware, and associated
analysis tools.

Resilience for Global Address Spaces, PI, funded by
DOE/LBNL at $203,393 from 9/13-8/16.

The objective is to develop and integrate into Global Address Spaces a
set of advanced techniques to reduce the checkpoint/restart (C/R)
overhead.

Hobbes: OS and Runtime Support for Application
Composition, co-PI, funded by DOE/SNL/ORNL at $300,000 from
10/13-10/16 with PI Ron Brightwell and other co-PIs.

The objective is to develop resilience methods for the operating and
runtime system stack for future exascale platforms.

The objective of this NSF-CPS Synergy proposal is to develop a
distributed algorithmic framework, supported by a highly
fault-tolerant software system, for executing critical
transmission-level operations of the North American power grid using
gigantic volumes of Synchrophasor data.

The objective of this work is to understand these novel implications
of fused architectures by studying their effects, qualifying their
causes and quantifying the impacts on performance and energy
efficiency. We propose to advance the state-of-the-art by creating
spheres of isolation between CPU and GPU execution via novel systems
mechanisms and compiler transformations that reduce cross-boundary
contention with respect to shared hardware resources. This synergy
between systems and compiler techniques has the potential to
significantly improve performance and power guarantees for
co-scheduling program fragments on fused architectures.

Past Research Activities

Other Funding

Funding Sources not Listed by Radar

Grants from federal/state agencies (U.S. and beyond) and industry
amount to move than
RADAR shows.
Items missing from the RADAR list are explicitly marked
as such in the list above on a per-grant basis above. Radar omits
several grant resources. Examples are:

Grants awarded at Humboldt University prior to joining NCSU are not listed.

Awards not paid through NCSU are not listed, including the Humboldt
Foundation fellowship for the 2007/2008 sabbatical and Humboldt
Foundation research grant for the 2014/2015 sabbatical.

Awarded grants with annual installments: Only installments to
date are reflected in Radar, i.e., future installments that
are already committed in the award letters are excluded by Radar,
including DOE RAS, NSF TiME-ME.

Awards are not listed: Awards made internally within NCSU with
both NCSU-internal and external sources are not reflected,
including: NSF ERC FREEDM, ARO funding through SOSI, NCSU FR&PD and
any cost sharing.
